All are welcome at Saint Monica
The sacred purpose of St. Monica Parish is to build a welcoming community of faith, creating missionary disciples who make God's love visible through service to others.
Mutually Shared Vision (Archdiocese of San Antonio)
Seeking to live in sacramental communion with one another, the Archdiocese of San Antonio exists to make disciples and missionaries of Jesus Christ to prepare for the promise of Eternal Life.
Our parish was founded in 1960 and we serve the amazing people of Converse and surrounding area in the Archdiocese of San Antonio.
We invite you to a Mass, one of our parish events, or praying in our chapel.

April 1, 2025 - 11:00pmThe first reading from Isaiah represents one of the most striking passages of the Bible that affirms the love of God for his people. It was a message of consolation addressed to the Jewish captives in Babylon promising them the joys of Messianic times. We are also captives and exiles because of our sins and human failings. Our deliverance is also near. The Messiah will come to us at Easter to give us all the blessings promised by God in this reading. --St. Andrew Bible Missal
